Cosmic Ruler

After the second day, now on the third day, the old man sat alone in the special spectators’ area.

Aiden, now alone, focused on improving his strength. He didn’t want to feel burdened like that again; it was a dreadful feeling unlike any he had ever experienced, and he was determined never to experience it again.

So, he decided to concentrate on self-improvement. Fortunately for him, his origin core was still available after his breakthrough to Spirit Grandmaster. Although he couldn’t use any of its energy, after his breakthrough to Titled Awakened in Celestaria, he was able to form a small, one-by-one kilometer world inside his origin core.

He never used it as he had Nyrina World by the time he formed his own small world, but here, he couldn’t access the portal to Nyrina World. So now, he could only use his own small world.

Aiden, who was closing his eyes, suddenly felt a shift in space around him. When he opened his eyes, he found himself in a white void of one-by-one kilometer. The space around him looked like a river of multicolored water, each color representing a different energy he had in his core.

Blue for Mana, Rainbow for his Aura, Golden for Divine, Black for Abyssal, Purple-Blackish for Eldritch energy, Reddish-Black for Ruination energy, and lastly, Violet for Void energy.

Aiden wearily smiled, recognizing these as nothing more than reminders of his once great prowess.

He then focused on the transparent milky energy, which was the spirit energy of this world. The energy of this world was without any characteristics; it always took on the characteristic of the spirit it was used with.

For Aiden, it was of four kinds as he had four spirits.

Leaving the Energies River aside, Aiden focused on the white void and willed it to change.

Soon, the white void began to transform. First, it was wholly covered by lush green grass. Then, in the center of it, a tree sprouted and grew large enough to provide shade to the entire world.

Aiden nodded approvingly at the sight. Not far from the tree, he created a small pond and willed the energies to coagulate there. Small streams from all the rivers poured their energy into the cavity, filling it with a shimmering liquid of multicolored energies.

[Be careful. We don’t have any way to replenish them unless you want to use your hard-earned system points,] Nexus said as Aiden poured the energies into the pond.

"I know, though this is necessary," Aiden nodded and replied.

[What are you going to do with it?] Nexus asked, looking at the pond.

"Of course, bathe in it," Aiden shrugged and replied.

"[....]" Nexus was silent for a moment.

[That’s one painful way to die,] Nexus eventually said after a long silence.

"No pain, no gain," Aiden said with determination.

"This is the best body-forging pool I can create," he repeated, looking at the shimmering pond.

"Just don’t die," Nexus sighed. He understood why Aiden was so eager to become strong but couldn’t help but worry about the dangerous method Aiden had chosen to fortify his body.

Nexus remembered just why Aiden created this. It was from the War Monarch legacy, a method he once found in an ancient ruin. The same energy pool existed there, and now Aiden had all the necessary energies to recreate it.

Aiden might have attempted it in his previous world to perfect his body, but he was lacking one crucial energy: an energy without characteristics. This was the spirit energy he acquired in this world.

And now Aiden has access to it, completing all the energies he need for the transformation.

Aiden gazed at the pond, the shimmering liquid of multicolored energies swirling and mixing. Each energy had a unique property and significance, a testament to his once vast prowess.

Mana: This energy represented the pure magical force that allowed him to cast spells and perform magical feats. It was the foundation of all magical energy, versatile and essential.

Aura: Aura was a manifestation of his spirit and life force. It represented his willpower and inner strength, enhancing his physical abilities and allowing him to perform superhuman feats.

Divine: The divine energy symbolized holiness and purity. It was powerful against dark forces and had healing properties. This energy was often associated with blessings and miracles.

Abyssal: Abyssal energy was dark and chaotic, embodying the power of the abyss. It was destructive and could corrupt anything it touched, often used for powerful offensive abilities.

Eldritch Energy: This was the essence of ancient and forbidden knowledge. Eldritch energy was mysterious and incomprehensible, allowing him to manipulate the very fabric of reality.

Ruination Energy: This energy signified destruction and decay. It was potent and devastating, capable of breaking down any matter or energy it came into contact with.

Void Energy: Void energy was the essence of nothingness, a paradoxical force that could nullify other energies and create pockets of absolute void. It was both a defensive and offensive power.

Finally, the transparent milky energy was the spirit energy of this world. It was without any inherent characteristics, taking on the properties of the spirit it was used with. For Aiden, it would be of four kinds, corresponding to his four spirits. Your next journey awaits at novelbuddy

Aiden took a deep breath and prepared himself for what was to come. "No pain, no gain," he reminded himself as he approached the pond. He removed his clothing, revealing a body that, while strong, still bore the tenderness of a kid. He steeled his resolve and jumped into the pond.

The moment his body hit the shimmering liquid, he felt an intense, searing pain. The energies began to penetrate his skin, flooding his body with their distinct properties. Aiden gritted his teeth, refusing to scream. He knew that this process was necessary to rebuild and fortify his body, and he is willingly do it if he want to stop that monster from attacking him.

Phase 1: Infusion

As Aiden submerged himself fully in the pond, the energies began to infuse his body at a cellular level. Each energy worked differently:

Mana seeped into his muscles and bones, strengthening and fortifying them.

Aura merged with his spirit, enhancing his life force and resilience.

Divine energy flowed through his bloodstream, healing old wounds and purifying his body.

Abyssal energy attacked and destroyed any impurities, though it left a burning sensation in its wake.

Eldritch energy expanded his consciousness, allowing him to sense and manipulate the energies more effectively.

Ruination energy broke down and rebuilt his tissues, making them stronger and more durable.

Void energy created a protective layer around his vital organs, nullifying harmful effects.

Phase 2: Transformation

As the energies continued to work, Aiden felt his body undergoing a transformation. His muscles started to tear and then regenerate, becoming denser and more powerful. His bones cracked and then reformed, becoming harder and more resilient. His skin thickened, becoming tougher yet more flexible.

The pain was excruciating, but Aiden focused on the end goal. He visualized his body becoming stronger, faster, and more durable. He could feel his spirit energy adapting to the four spirits he possessed, enhancing his abilities even further.

Phase 3: Integration

Finally, the energies began to integrate fully into his body. The different types of energy started to harmonize, working together rather than in opposition. Aiden felt a surge of power as his body reached a new equilibrium. His senses sharpened, and he felt more in tune with his surroundings.

He stayed in the pond until the energies settled, and the pain subsided. When he finally emerged, his body was transformed. His muscles were leaner and stronger, his skin glowed with health, and his eyes sparkled with newfound vitality.

Aiden took a moment to catch his breath, feeling the immense power coursing through his veins. He had taken a significant step towards reclaiming his former strength, but he knew there was still a long way to go.

Coming out of the pool, Aiden waved his hand and brought out a towel. He covered his naked body with it and then sat under the tree. Panting, he opened his system shop and, after scrolling through it, purchased a vial of nourishment.

The vial contained a pale blue liquid in a small glass bottle, resembling a potion from his previous world. He opened the cap and gulped down the contents, feeling an instant wave of rejuvenation. Leaning against the tree, he fell asleep almost immediately.

As he slept, three figures emerged in his world.

The first was a beautiful lady with golden hair cascading down to her waist. Her face was oval, with small pink lips and serene golden eyes. Wearing a white dress, she looked like a saint, exuding a calm and gentle aura.

The second figure was robed in black, his entire body covered, even his limbs were not visible. His face was hidden in the darkness of his robe, with only two flaming eyes glowing in the shadows.

The third figure stepped forward, distinct from the other two. This one had an ethereal presence, embodying both strength and wisdom. His appearance was a blend of elements, with a shimmering form that seemed to change and shift with the energies around him.
